The Master said, "The scheme was not yet accomplished." The student asked, "What was it like when the Second Patriarch stood in the snow?" The Master said, "Compounding error upon error." The student asked, "What about when he cut off his arm to pacify his mind?" The Master said, "Emperor Yang opening the Bian Canal." The student asked, "What about when it is not like any of this?" The Master said, "Go back and ask the Second Patriarch." He then cited: "Bodhidharma asked the Second Patriarch, 'What are you doing?' The Second Patriarch said, 'Please, Master, pacify my mind.' Had Baiyun seen it then, he would have given him twenty blows of the staff. Why? If others caught sight of it, they would think there were two. As for speaking of the method of pacifying the mind, how is it in the end? The bodhisattvas and dragon kings send down moistening rain, / Veiling the body above with layer upon layer of clouds." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995.2.6) - [Next: 2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995.2.8) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995~en-mt.2.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1995.2.7) · Pramāṇa
